That signals an error when the *Help* buffer is on a dedicated window (as
is the case for me). I spend a lot of time getting rid of such misuses of
switch-to-buffer, so I strongly oppose this patch.
Of course, the right way to fix it might be to make switch-to-buffer
delegate to pop-to-buffer rather than signal an error. But last time
I suggested it, Richard did not like it.
